Re: R7 volvo 380

I simply have 2 round gauges, they indicate check engine at startup, I have never found anything beyond that, a simple idiot light with no detail. Using the Rinda I get 2 recurring faults, SPN 698 Failure Mode = 5 Aux PWM driver 2/analog gauge driver and SPN 699 Failure Mode = 5 Aux PWM driver 3 ...

Re: R7 volvo 380

Silly me, I thought it would be attached to a bulkhead somewhere. It’s bolted right to the top of the engine and I found it.

R7 volvo 380

I get an occasional check engine, which nobody seems to be able to figure out. So I bought a Rinda code scanner. But for the life of me I don’t know where the ECU is and the diagnostic connector that should be next to it. Can anyone point me in the direction of where I would find the diagnostic ...

Windlass Remote on R7

We anchor quite a bit, only having the control for it at the helm is a bit of a pain. Has anyone added a remote for the Windlass? I am thinking some sort of wireless setup. That way I can focus on driving the boat and have the wife run the anchor up and down instead of relying on hand signals from ...

I would like to replace several that no longer work and want to get whatever I need before I head down ...
